JAWS 2!
So many reversion possibilities…
1) Both with Mean Reversion = negative correlation,
If like 2001, Good. But if like 2008, Bad.
2) Gold/CRB Mean Reversion only = Bad positive correlation, like 2013/14.
3) SGR Mean Reversion only = Good positive correlation, like 2006 & 2010.
4) Lockjaw = both continued in same direction.
… which is why I daytrade only now.
That’s some divergence.
